Replication Data for: The role of preference formation and perception in unequal representation. Combined evidence from elite interviews and focus groups in Germany
No full textUnequal representation can result from politicians’ biased perception of public opinion. Existing research has focused on the numerical accuracy with which politicians estimate preferences distributions in surveys. This method ignores politicians’ broader assumptions about public preferences; e.g. regarding their crystallization, salience, malleability, and measurability in surveys. We address these assumptions in a novel two-stage research design using redistributive tax policy in Germany as a case. Interviews with parliamentarians show that voters are perceived as uninformed, disinterested, and susceptible to anti-tax mobilization by business representatives. Support for taxing the rich in polls is dismissed as superficial and irrelevant for political behavior. In a second step, we verify these assumptions in twelve focus groups with high- or low-educated citizens. They largely confirm the assumed indifference and anti-tax attitudes. An education gap in tax preferences cannot be identified. Support expressed in previous surveys tends to disappear in conversations, which aligns with politicians’ experiences

Replication Data for: Informational Lobbying and Commercial Diplomacy
No full textWhat determines the content of bilateral diplomacy? I argue that the foreign policy
issues prioritized by specific embassies are influenced by their diplomats’ sources of
information. For evidence, I study the proliferation of foreign branches of the American
Chamber of Commerce (AmChams)—private interest groups composed of U.S. firms
that are operating in specific host states—over the 20th and early 21st centuries. AmChams became key sources of information for U.S. embassies, particularly on issues of relevance to the private sector (such as tax, trade, and investment regulations). Using novel text data from approximately 1,500 oral history interviews with former diplomats, and leveraging the institutional structure of diplomatic rotation, I show that diplomats who were exposed to active AmCham branches paid significantly greater attention to commercial issues. These results identify a new avenue through which interest groups can influence foreign policy, help explain the proliferation of pro-business international agreements over the past several decades, and contribute to the growing literature on diplomacy in the international political economy
